Grade 7 - Design Process Part 2 is now due & final photos

To all ODD section 7th graders

All projects are now due either on paper or via sharing the google docs.

Since everyone always wants to know who held the most weight here is your winner....

For safety reasons this was the last photo we took because the final height of the pile forced the teacher to use a chair to place the books on top. In the end he held the 50lbs, all 25 of the Red books and 18 Blue books totaling nearly a 140lbs.  Well Done. 

Here are the remaining photos.
